Why bound fretboards?
Having binding on a fretboard enhances durability by protecting the edges from wear and tear, thereby extending the life of your guitar. It improves playability by offering smooth, bound edges that prevent sharp fret ends, making playing more comfortable.
Additionally, binding adds a polished, professional look to the instrument, increasing its aesthetic appeal. It also contributes to the structural integrity of the fretboard, helping to maintain its shape and alignment for consistent performance.
This jig is designed to help you in the process of binding fretboards.
It is affordable and easy to use, providing the perfect gluing platform.

Remember to use some waxed paper or a plastic film in order to prevent the fretboard to stick to the jig.
Please notice the jig featured in the video is a prototype test unit, the consumer version will not have any dent or finish defect.

Love it!

Nice jig BUT what is the purpose of the distracting noise?

[@IhabIAmer]

What about another for a tele body?

[@GWLuthierSupplies]

It is a good idea, although it might turn out a pretty big jig ;)

The small piece at the end of the fretboard sits between the outside binding.

@@enriquegarcia8691 Thanks for your answer, although we might argue that the ending bit was for video making purposes as we are not making any finished instrument in our facilities. Good building!
